Hi guys,

let's assume i have    the following

      1
x = 2
      6
      5

      1   4
y = 3   5
      8  10

i want the code to report back 1, 2 and 5 from x.
Basically it shopuld check whether each elements of x falls in the range of
each row of x. 1 and 2 falls in between 1-4 and 5 falls in between 3-5.
I do this with two for loops but in the case of very large list, it takes
ages.

best,
salih
